Film production in Bari
Between June and December, usable daylight in Bari moves by 5h 53min — from 15h 07min down to 9h 14min. An exterior day in December is a different day from one in June. This page carries sunrise, sunset and golden-hour times for all twelve months, the climate profile.
Light and shooting hours
On 15 June, the sun in Bari rises at 05:20 and sets at 20:27; the evening golden hour starts at 19:46 and runs for 42 minutes. By December that shifts to 07:11–16:25, with a 44-minute golden-hour window from 15:41.
In practice, a spread of 5h 53min means a schedule that works here in summer does not work in winter at the same location — with the same setup count, the hours simply are not there.

Blue hour and shooting windows
Blue hour in Bari starts at 20:48 in June and ends at 21:01 — a window of 13 minutes. In December it is 12 minutes from 16:45. If you need a city view with lit windows, that window is all you get.
Sunset moves fastest around the equinoxes: between March (17:59) and September (19:04) there are 65 minutes of difference. A schedule running over several weeks cannot work from one fixed "sunset" time.
Weather and washout risk
Bari averages 11 rain days in March and 3 in July. A three-day exterior shoot in March statistically loses 1.1 days — not a forecast, but the basis for deciding whether a cover set belongs in the budget.

Planning a shoot here
A schedule that ignores these numbers looks fine on paper and falls over on the day. TillyGen folds sun position, travel and crew availability straight into the schedule — if the exterior no longer fits before sunset in December, the plan says so, not the wrap report.
